The Bismarck Tribune aptly illus
trates a prevailing feature among our
territorial legislators in the following
dialogue, which could doubtless be as
appropriately applied to many other
public bodies outside of the great terri
tory:

Why Dakota is Proud.

Why Dakota is proud may be judged
from the annexed statement. 1t has
$500 miles Of railway, more than any
n Of twenty states; 1000 school
houses, more than any one of fifteen
states; 275 newspapers, moro than any
New England state except Massa,
chusetts, or any eastern state excep,
New York and Pennsylvania. In the
number Of postofices it ranks above
twenty-three states and territories, and
pays more revenu to the ~postofice de-
partment than any n OF the thirty
two states, and it has a population as
large as Nebraska or Connecticut, and
nearly twice as large as Vermont OF
Florida.-Chicago Herald.

to a large extent, the whole range Of
metallic products.
The vast iron industries OF this coun-
try, with sufficient supplies to meet the
requirements Of the whole world,
are restricted by this same power. AS
500 as the price of iron reaches a point
where satisfactory wages can be paid to
laborers and a fair profit accrue to
capital, the product Of Europe immedia-
tely foods our shores and quenches the
furnace fires which were beginning to
light with a glow Of prosperity the
mountains and valleys of our own
country.
The records Of this disastrous history
have been repeated over and over
again; yet seemingly without a lesson
for the legislators and economists, who
have been chosen to protect the inter
ests Of the people. Too long the in
dustrial advantages Of this country have
been neglected, while industry has been
discouraged and energy paralized by
the hopeless results from its most earn
est endeavor.
The productive industries OF a nation
are the bulwarks Of its strength and
perpetuity, and should be guarded as
sacredly as its homes and altars.-Chica.

At the present time the American
fishery question is exciting the interest
of the whole country, and the determin
ed measures taken by the senate Of the
United States, meet with the approba.
ton Of every one interested in the pro.
lection of American industries. While
this question is before the people il
might be well to consider the rights oil
other branches Of American enterprise,
many Of which, in dollars and cents, are
as important az the fishery interests
W. would call the attention to those
more particularly within the domain OF
our observation those connected with
the development Of the mineral re-
sources of the country. 1t is well
known that the United States is one OF
the chief producers of silver. and in fact
its product equals that of the whole
world, while its measureless resources
are scarcely more than touched, and it
is a fact which should be as equally we'll
understood, that not a single ounce of
this metal is coined into standard dol
lars Of the United States, except at a
price fixed by London brokers.
Great Britain, a nonrproducer of sill
yer, supplies India, which absorbs a
large proportion Of the whole amount
produced annually from our country, at
a price fixed by herself. The same is
practically true concerning copper, and
